"The move was very smooth and efficient! The movers were cordial, on time and such a delight to work with. They were very quick in moving our stuff from one apartment to another but ensured that everything was left unscratched or damaged. Would highly recommend Stairhoppers for your next move!"

"My girlfriend and I recently contacted All Service Moving to help us relocate our furniture from Seattle to Lake City, and the service from them was amazing! Brad and Donald were personable, professional, speedy, and thorough. I definitely recommended their service if you need lots of stuff moved quickly and hiccup-free. They wrapped everything up nicely (they were also very handy with their bubble-wrap, even using it as a doorstop when going in and out for easier access), deconstructed furniture with ease, and overall made the job look so easy!"

"I had a great time working with Trend. They were very clear and explained everything very well over the phone. It was great because I felt like they would give me a straight answer, unlike some other companies I spoke to. They were also incredibly friendly when I called back multiple times to ask questions! When it came to the actual moving process, the guys were awesome! They came in and took a look at everything we wanted moved. They were great about disassembling everything, shrink wrapping if necessary to protect our furniture, loading everything in the truck, unloading at the new house and putting everything back together again. The fact that they had mattress bags and tv boxes made our move even more convenient and made me feel like my belongings were protected and safe in their hands. We got done in about 5 hours what it probably would have taken us days to do on our own!"

"Customer service was very friendly, and easy to talk to. They gave me a great price over the phone. The movers showed up on time to moved a piano. It was pouring rain when they got here. I was concerned until I saw them wrapping the piano with blankets, cardboard, and plastic stretch wrap. They were very professional and never tracked water or mud into the house. They took the same care delivering as they did the pickup. M&M Moving was definitely the right choice, they also had the best price by far!"

Moving questions, answered by experts

Full-service movers provide all the necessary packing supplies and materials—saving you time and money. In addition, long-distance moving companies have special blankets and padding to move heavy, bulky items. Full-service movers will pack and unpack your belongings quickly and safely and dispose of all the packing materials, including recycling cardboard boxes. 

To treat office moving costs as capital expenses, which means recording them as assets, they must meet certain rules: they need to be essential for the business to keep running, directly related to the move, reasonable, and documented properly with invoices and contracts. These costs can include packing, transportation, and setting up the new office. Once these expenses are capitalized, they're treated like assets on the books and gradually accounted for over time through depreciation or amortization.

Moving a six-person hot tub typically requires at least four to six strong individuals. The exact number of people required depends on the hot tub's weight, dimensions, and any obstacles in the moving path. Additionally, professional movers may have specialized equipment to handle the task more efficiently with fewer people.

There are several effective ways to save money when hiring a moving company, primarily by handling some tasks yourself and being strategic with scheduling. Consider these methods:

  • Pack Your Own Belongings: You can significantly reduce costs by packing and protecting your items yourself. This includes wrapping delicate items, organizing them into boxes, and taping the boxes closed. You can use towels, clothes, and suitcases to pack belongings and protect breakables.

  • Provide Your Own Materials: Source free packing materials from friends and family, or reuse boxes and bubble wrap from a previous move.

  • Schedule Strategically: Book your move well in advance. Rates are often lower if you schedule your move on a weekday during the off-season, which typically runs from October through April.

  • Compare Quotes: Get moving quotes from at least three professional movers in your area. This allows you to compare services and choose the best value.

  • Ask for Discounts: Inquire if the moving company offers any special coupons or deals.

  • Purchase Moving Insurance: Protect your investment by purchasing moving insurance, especially for expensive or antique belongings.

  • Divide the Labor: While you can save money by packing, it's wise to leave the more dangerous and physically demanding work—like loading, unloading, and moving heavy furniture—to the professionals.

Most professional movers can provide a wide range of moving-related services, and you’ll need to pick and choose which ones you want to use. Examples of common services offered include the following:

  • Organizing and packing your belongings

  • Protecting delicate items with bubble wrap or other protective equipment

  • Moving your belongings and furniture out of your old home

  • Moving your belongings into your new home within a certain distance

  • Unpacking your belongings in the new location

  • Moving heavy items, like pianos

  • Moving your vehicles

  • Storage if your new home isn’t ready
